Reformatory Punishment.

By the arm of the law, relentless and
rude he was sent off to prison, for
stealing food, where they made him
make shoes that were full of holes and
bottom them off with pasteboard soles;
make oleomargarined butter of fat that
was taken out of soft soap vat; make
coats of cloth eaten up by the moth
with the most economical shoddy cloth.
When he'd staid there year, it was

A Remarkable Case.

A case of somewhat remarkable char
acter is at the present time in the Lon
don Temperance Hospital A girl,
aged fifteen, had the last molar tooth
in the lower jaw on the right side re-
moved about six weeks ago. No
anesthetic was administered. She was
in perfect health at the time. Half an
hour after the operation she began to
yawn, and has continued to do so
since. One yawn succeeds another
without interruption. and with an in
terval of two or three seconds. Gal
vanism has been tried without effect
and other remedies previous to adms-
sion into the hospital. Three days af-
terward the yswning changed to sneez-
ing, and recently she has suffered
from constant and rapidly succeeding
fits of sneezing, each Of which par
oxysms appears to begin with yawn.
She seems to have no power of control
over herself or only to very slight
extent; and II she attempts to do so the
next sneeze is more violent. -London

The Land of Rest.

Beyond the hills so purple haze

And many Of our loved are there;
So silently and one by one
They went the lonesome Journey on
All, with white hands upon their breast,
Went out into the land OF rest.

Why They Default.

The two defelcations that are reported
from -PMixdelphia in which the Times and
Ne,cs were made the victims of misplaced
confidence, illustrates anew the sound
theory that it is the honest and irreproach.
able official who most needs watching.
Paradoxical as it may seem, the emp'oye
Of spotless reputation in whom large trust
10 confided is the one who invariably gets
away with money that does not belong to
him.
And it is not hard to find the reason
therefor. All men are human, and it
y not well to subject them to too
much temptation. They can stand it oc-
caGionally, but let them have it thrust upon
them at all times. Let them think about
Il BY day and dream about it by night, and
Il d not strange that they often succumb.
Tho only way to avoid the possibility of
these occurrences is TO 30 arrange ones
business q to provide for natural audit
ing board, and not permit clerk to have
exclusive control Of an important depart
ment. Such clerk for his own protection
should be glad Of this overseeing power.
For with this ever in front Of him, he will
receive favorable answer to what ought to
b bis constant prayer, lead US not into
